1 MAGS and WETT De-Centralized Waste Management Innovations Green Building Congress 2017 Water and Energy: The Real Resource Recovery Imperative Introduction Bharco Ecotechnologies is a U.S.A. based company established in 2011, with representation in Canada, France and India, that develops and promotes proprietary scientific waste technologies globally. Terragon Environmental Technologies Inc. is Bharco s Montreal based technology developer and manufacturing partner. De-Centralized small scale Appliances : treat the waste at the source of generation eliminating hauling, landfilling and incineration of waste.

2 using it wisely

3 Waste No Waste Waste Exists In Our Behaviour North Americans currently generate nearly 3kg of garbage and 300L of sewage per person, daily. In India, the waste generation is ~6X lower but the effect of high population density is significant Waste is material we do not know how to use and we discard to a municipal transfer process. In remote habitats the consequences are disastrous. The local generation of thermal energy and clean water offers significant social, economic and environmental opportunities!

4 Total Resource Utilization (TRU) Habitat TRU - Generating resources from what is now waste to support autonomy and local sustainability A habitat could generate much of its thermal energy and clean water needs from materials we currently waste Industrial Plants Hospitals Hotels, Spas and Remote Resorts Schools and Institutions Hi-Rise Apartment Complexes Gated Communities Military Bases and Ships Temples and Places of Worship Defining the Ideal Waste to Energy Treatment Solution Our Top 10 List* 1. A closed system, not open to the air, water, or land 2. A system that will handle waste economically 3. A system that can process a broad spectrum of wastes 4. A destruction level of >99% (or to the detection limit) or transformation to an inert state 5. No operator exposure occupational health and safety is paramount 6. No odor 7. No toxic off gases 8. No toxic ash 9. No uncertain storage of organic or toxic substances by land filling or deep well injection 10.No ocean or waterway dumping of waste * Compiled from documents released by the US EPA, Department of Defense, Department of Energy and the Centre For Disease Control, Government of the United States of America.

5 Types of Waste Feedstock Types of Municipal and Industrial Waste Feedstock Food & Drinks Plastic Waste & Discards Municipal Solid Waste (Canteen Waste) Pharmaceutical Waste Biomedical Waste Waste Water Sludge (Sewage and Effluent) Other Types of Waste Wood and Saw Mill Waste Parks and Garden Waste Non-recyclable & Soiled Paper Construction and Demolition Debris

6 Industrial Solid Waste and Liquid Effluent Oil and Fracking Water Lagoons Dairy and Swine Manure Lagoons Coal Dust and Ash Landfill Leachate Energy Resources Most materials currently considered waste are made of various hydrocarbons (i.e. biomass) and are a great source of renewable energy. They include plastics, paper, cardboard, cloth, wood, Styrofoam, used oils, leather, etc. These materials can be used to provide a portion of the thermal energy needed by the habitat in the form of hot water. Each kilogram of waste can generate about 2.5kWh of energy. In remote locations, a tonne of waste would generate about $500 worth of energy!

7 De-Centralized Resource Generation Appliances Bharco and Terragon are revolutionizing waste management by enabling the local generation of resources with simple and cost effective appliances The New Paradigm in Waste Management

8 MAGS: An Energy Appliance Fueled by Waste MAGS offer exceptional energy efficiency and can be operated anywhere Auto Gasification is a patented technology which thermally breaks down hydrocarbons into solid carbon and synthesis gas and uses the synthesis gas to fuel the process. MAGS converts all organic waste, such as plastics, papers, food, cardboards, textiles, wood, used oil, and sludge, into energy, bio-char and water. MAGS sequesters carbon and generates soil enriching bio-char. How MAGS Works

9 MAGS: Safe, Simple, Economical, Commercial Specs V8 Size: 10.1m 3 Weight: Capacity: 4,820kg 50 kg/hr Feeding Lid: 0.15m 3 Feeding: Char Removal: Operation: 15 sec every 10 min Automated for sludge Automated 24 hours/day More compact, more capable, simpler operation, but equally clean and safe MAGS Loading

10 MAGS Time Lapse Loading Atmospheric Emissions Contaminants MAGS Emissions EPA Limits Units Particulates mg/m 3 Carbon Monoxide(CO) mg/m 3 Hydrochloric Acid (HCl) < mg/m 3 Nitrogen Oxide (NOx) mg/m 3 Dioxins/Furans ng/m 3 Mercury µg/m 3 Note: Emissions based on extreme feed with 60% plastics. New classification from IMO being drafted (Pollution Prevention & Response Group) A self fueling device that sequesters carbon and does not require an incinerator exhaust stack MAGS has very clean, cold, invisible and odorless emissions and can be operated anywhere without damaging the local environment.

11 MAGS V8 Char Removal Generation and Use of Bio-char About 5% of the waste used for energy generation in MAGS will be recovered as biochar. Bio-char is essentially inorganic carbon rich in minerals. The recovery of bio-char sequesters carbon and reduces GHG emissions. Bio-char has been used for centuries for soil enrichment. When combined with compost or fertilizer, it can significantly enhance growth, as shown in the adjacent picture from a study undertaken in Hawaii in Bio-char that cannot be used in the habitat s grounds, can be safely discharged in the landfill. Root Development Control With Fertilizer Fertilizer & Biochar

12 Integrated Solid Waste Management In combination with effective composting and recycling programs, MAGS enables all habitats to nearly eliminate waste discharge. Solid Waste Compostable Combustible Recyclable Compost MAGS Bio-Char Energy Fertilizer H 2 O Recycling The bio-char from MAGS can be combined with habitat s compost to create soil fertilizer for the local gardens and green spaces. Simple Installations

13 Clean and Green MAGS Multiple Applications Guaranteed Safe Commercial Marine Nat. Geo. Orion Maersk Matson Crystal Serenity Big Lift Remote Communities Military & Defense Canadian Arctic NAVSEA US Canadian DoD Navy Caribbean Canadian DND Hawaii Canadian Coast Guard Maersk Line MAGS is a cost effective and proven technology, that is daily used in many applications, globally. Enterprises, Industrial and Hospital Engenium, Canada Dyno Nobel, USA Fortech, Costa Rica

14 US Military Approved - Commercial & Community Applications Rethinking How We Use Water WETT is a patented electrochemical process that produces clean water for safe reuse

15 Rethinking Water Management WETT-S Irrigation WETT-G By replacing our wasteful one pipe in- one pipe out doctrine with water for purpose we can significantly reduce water consumption and eliminate dirty water discharge WETT Technology Description Wastewaters Grey water (showers, laundry) Black water (kitchens, toilets) Oily water (bilge water) Treatment No biological treatment No chemical addition Advanced electrochemistry Removes suspended and dissolved solids Inactivates pathogens Requires only electrodes/electricity Operation Compact and easy to operate Continuous & unattended High quality water for reuse Electro Coagulation Electro Oxidation

16 WETT-G: A Novel Approach for GW Reuse Main Aspects Proprietary ElectroCoagulation unit (EC) EC that is self-cleaning, non-passivating Proprietary bead filter unit (BF) Polishing stages (GAC, Cl 2 ) No biological treatment, no membranes, no chemicals, no filters nominal capacity: m 3 /day power use: 8 kwh/m 3 Electrode life : 3 months Fully automated How WETT-O Works
